Re: Cat collars

I will never be putting a collar on any of my cats, even a safety one!

I had a saftey one on one of mine and it got caught on a bush, when she tried to pull away, it got caught round her face and was strangling her. She was freaking out so much I couldn't get it off her until she passed out.
It only took about 30 seconds before she came back round, but god it was scary! And just think, if I hadn't have been there, I would not have been able to release it.

I also heard about another cat who was hanged by his collar from a tree the other day and unfortunatly died. Safety collars do not always release!

(Yes, I may be devastated in days, weeks, months, years to find they have gone missing/injured/rta/dead from poisoning)

Both are microchipped and I have changed the microchip registration to my name and all is in order. They are now both insured via Petplan.

But ------- would you put a collar on and if so any recommendations?
Yes Janee=with this sort of positive thinking-how about saving them on the anticipation of when and throw them into a ring of hungary wolves-be quickerD..I knowyour right Janee-serious response now-no wouldn't use a collar,imo just another added risk they don't need especially that they're chipped
